## Spots in Almadies Peninsula

- [Ouakam](https://yosurf.app/spot/ouakam): Almadies Peninsula; Reef break; levels beginner, intermediate, advanced; On the Almadies peninsula, just south of Les Mamelles lighthouse, facing the Mosque of the Divinity. A reef known for its barrels, both ways, best left to confident surfers.
- [Club Med](https://yosurf.app/spot/club-med): Almadies Peninsula; Reef break; levels beginner, intermediate, advanced; By the old Club Med resort on the Almadies peninsula — the westernmost point of mainland Africa. A fast, hollow left reef for experienced surfers, with sea urchins and a shallow bottom to watch for.
- [Gauche de Loic](https://yosurf.app/spot/gauche-de-loic): Almadies Peninsula; Reef break; levels beginner, intermediate, advanced; Near N'Gor, on the Almadies peninsula. A long, powerful left over a rocky bottom that only really works when there's no wind at all — a fairly long walk in, and never a crowd.
- [Ngor Right](https://yosurf.app/spot/ngor-right): Almadies Peninsula; Reef right; levels beginner, intermediate, advanced; Off N'Gor Island, the right-hander that put Dakar on the map — filmed for The Endless Summer back in the 1960s. A long, steady point break, within reach of intermediate surfers.
- [No Return](https://yosurf.app/spot/no-return): Almadies Peninsula; Reef right; levels beginner, intermediate, advanced; On the Almadies peninsula, a reef that stays quiet even when it's firing. Needs a southwest swell with an offshore north-northeast wind to turn on, and a rocky bottom to watch for.
- [Ngor Left](https://yosurf.app/spot/ngor-left): Almadies Peninsula; Reef left; levels beginner, intermediate, advanced; On the other side of N'Gor Island, facing the right-hander. A more powerful but less consistent left reef, with urchins and rocks to negotiate on the bottom.
- [Le Virage](https://yosurf.app/spot/le-virage): Almadies Peninsula; Beach break; levels beginner, intermediate, advanced; On Dakar's Corniche. An easy, fun beach break — a good alternative to Yoff when it's too crowded, with long right-handers over sand.
- [Yoff Beach](https://yosurf.app/spot/yoff-beach): Almadies Peninsula; Beach break; levels beginner, intermediate, advanced; A beach on the north side of Dakar, the local go-to for beginners. Waves over sand are usually gentle, but they can get seriously big when the swell picks up.
- [Baobab](https://yosurf.app/spot/baobab): ; Beach break; levels beginner; On the Petite Côte, near Somone, south of Dakar. A powerful, hollow sandbar wave that only really breaks with a solid swell — rare, but uncrowded when it does.
- [Julikai](https://yosurf.app/spot/julikai): ; Beach break; levels beginner, intermediate, advanced; On the Almadies peninsula, near the junction between the airport road and the road to Club Med. A beach break over boulders, with short waves on both sides — a friendly vibe and rarely crowded.
- [malika sur - mer](https://yosurf.app/spot/malika-sur-mer): ; Beach break; levels beginner, intermediate, advanced; A beach break north of Dakar, with lefts and rights over sand. Fairly consistent, and welcoming for all levels.
- [Petites Mamelles](https://yosurf.app/spot/petites-mamelles): ; Beach break; levels beginner, intermediate, advanced; At the foot of Les Mamelles, right next to Ouakam. A powerful, hollow wave over sand and flat rock that really only breaks 20 to 30 times a year — watch for currents and urchins when it's on.
- [Piere de Lisse](https://yosurf.app/spot/piere-de-lisse): ; Beach break; levels beginner; On the Petite Côte, about an hour's drive south of Dakar. A wild beach lined with dunes, reachable only by 4x4, with waves breaking both ways and never a crowd.
- [Yenne](https://yosurf.app/spot/yenne): ; Beach break; levels beginner; On the Petite Côte, about 45 minutes south of Dakar's airport. A powerful beach break with waves on both sides, a fishing-village atmosphere, and rocks to watch for.
